    How Osteopathic Medicine is Addressing the Rural Health Crisis in Pennsylvania

    Episode Summary: In today’s episode of POMA DOes… we sit down with four osteopathic physicians who live and work in rural Pennsylvania to discuss the workforce shortage, disparities in health equity, and the role that osteopathic medicine serves to improve healthcare in rural communities. Given the increased probability that physicians who are taught and trained in rural communities will stay or return to the area, the panelists will also share their experiences of teaching and training the next generation of osteopathic physicians in rural areas of the country. Tune in and learn how the osteopathic profession is uniquely able to make an impact with rural medicine.   Key Takeaways: Rural healthcare is in crisis across the country with deficiencies in the number of physicians and the quality of care delivered. Rural health and primary care is deeply rooted in the osteopathic profession, making it uniquely able to fill rural healthcare needs in the United States. Exposing students and residents to rural medicine increases the probability that they will remain in rural areas. Osteopathic physicians have a true gift - to look at the full patient and heal with their hands.   Find Us: Online: https://www.poma.org/ Email: poma@poma.org Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/POMADOs Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pomados/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/pennsylvania-osteopathic-medical-association/ Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/POMA_DOs YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@pomados  App Store: search Pa.
